Maybe, maybe I just don't know.
I don't pay attention to bun too much, but like that's, you know, you can compile, you can run Java, run TypeScript like without compiling, which is great.
You can compile binaries.
You can,
ESM still sucks, but like everything else seems good.
There's like a, what is it?
SQ light library, like built in now or coming at least.
That's cool.
You can.
I think that it's like bundling up the JS runtime and all of the node modules into some kind of binary that can run without you having to have node installed.
Yeah.
For sure.
You know, earlier this year, I was at SquiggleConf that our friends Josh Koldberg and Dimitri Metropolis run.
And there was a speaker there, Oliver Medhurst.
I think he was at, they were at Firefox before what they're doing now, which is building a version of JavaScript that can compile to a straight binary without having to have that wrapper.
Uh, I like when, when they were telling me about it, I was like really excited.
I'm like, Oh, this is like where, you know, imagine that being built into Claude, like Claude desktop or Claude, like chat GPT.
And like you just being able to like have that runtime that just can immediately and super quickly run whatever it's thinking.
And like, it can validate the code that it's giving back to you, like on the fly, because it did it all like right there in the browser.
This feels like maybe a move towards that.
